In the second instalment of a new fortnightly diary, frequent flyer Max Levene reflects on what home means to the serial business traveller<p><strong>Flights: </strong> 10<br><strong>Miles flown: </strong> 4,600<br><strong>Locations: </strong> Munich, London, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Berlin<br><strong>Nights in a hotel: </strong> 9<br><strong>Nights on a dancefloor: </strong> 7<br><strong>Satisfaction rating: </strong> 9.3/10</p><p>It was at Sadler's Wells, just after Matthew Bourne's outstanding Swan Lake, that I was struck by a profoundly warm glow. After a day of flight changes and exhausting pretzel eating in the Lufthansa lounge, I was back at home; my first evening in London of 2007. It was wonderful.
